Fujifilm polaroid Instax Mini 8
This year i decided to purchase the Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 in blue after reading many reviews online about how cute and great this product was. When i first saw the product online i fell in love with the colour choice there is; pink, blue, white, black and yellow.  I opted to go for one of the pastel colours and just knew the blue would be perfect, the blue is a cute pastel baby blue that is a really pretty elegant summer colour. I ordered the camera with 4 packs of film containing 10 lots of film in each pack, altogether it cost me £70.

The camera is easy to use, you take off the back of the camera insert the film pack, press the 'take a picture' button (i didn't know what else to call it haha) and the packaging from the film pack will come out the slot at the top. Then your camera is ready to use. To open up the lens you need to press the button at the bottom of the lens and it should pop out. The camera lens turns clockwise to select the right brightness setting, the camera automatically chooses one for you. Simply look through the viewfinder and press the 'take a picture' button. Your picture will come out of the slot at the top and will be blank! But DON'T WORRY! I remember the first time i took a picture i panicked, the image will slowly develop over about 3 minutes and honestly its amazing to watch.

As this is Fuji's instax mini the film is small and when printed comes out as small compact image (wallet size). These are easy to store and display,but they are not too small that you cant see the detail on them. The only disadvantage to this product is that the film is very expensive (about 50p - £1 depends where you get them from). Although the images make a great keep sake and are lovely to look back at.

Tips:
. Use your film wisely (it's very expensive)
. Use the setting the camera suggests the majority of the time its the best one.
. Make sure you watch lots of youtube videos on it before you take your first picture.
